Chapter 41 Am I a villain?

When Lee Poirot returned to Wimbledon, it was already early morning the next day.

Because it takes more than three hours to take the subway, it will inevitably affect the first training session.

So... Lisanna drove him back.

Li Poluo was a little embarrassed:

"Obviously it was me who sent you off..."

Lisanna gave him a peck on the lips and smiled very sweetly:

"Is this important? You have to train well and remember to call me at night!"

A warmth surged in Li Polo's heart:

"You should drive slower and don't miss me too much on the road."

Regarding his resentment about the speed of the car, Lisanna rolled her eyes and kicked the accelerator!

Looking at the plume of white smoke from the rear of the car, Li Polo shook his head.

Finally had a soft meal.

Even yesterday’s dinner and hotel were paid for by the little girl!

Hotels in urban London and around universities are much more expensive than in rural suburbs like Wimbledon!

After all this calculation, how much money can you get from perfume and lipstick?

Li Polo, who had eaten soft rice, was even more moved. He clenched his fists and once again encouraged himself to play hard.

Then he was pulled aside by Cox:

"The official game will be tomorrow. In today's intra-team competition, you have to pay attention to your actions and don't be too intense..."

He immediately and seriously refused:

"I am a professional player and I respect my job. Whether it is a formal game or daily training, I will work hard 100% seriously!"

Cox bared his teeth:

"You kid really didn't understand? I didn't say you didn't work hard, we were just worried that someone would get hurt!"

Li Polo put away his serious expression and laughed:

"In your eyes, am I just a villain who specializes in hurting people?"

Cox nodded:

"Well... no matter what I think, at least Dele Alli, Shinji Kagawa and the others must think so!"

Li Polo shrugged:

"Then can I make a small request? Let me have some playing time in the last few minutes of tomorrow's game? As you know, I just signed a new contract, and one appearance costs dozens of dollars! This is still you

Help me!"

The good man Cox thought for a second and agreed readily:

"I will convey it to the head coach. There should be no problem."

-

Thanks to the early deployment and careful arrangements of the coaching staff, the entire Wimbledon team was able to safely spend the last training session before the game.

In the afternoon of October 4, Ardley led the players to drive to the next away game, Gloucestershire on the border of western England and Wales, preparing to challenge the 11th opponent in the league, Cheltenham.

Cheltenham scored 15 points in the first 10 rounds and only ranked 15th. Although this game was at home, they were still under great pressure against the leader who had 9 wins and 1 loss in 10 rounds.

After these days of rigorous training, Adele originally thought that his disciple could easily defeat his opponent, but when the game started, he discovered that things were definitely not as simple as he expected.

The home team did not choose to defend because of the difference in strength, but went on an all-out attack from the beginning!

Wimbledon was immediately caught off guard. The three fronts were completely unable to agree on the offensive and defensive rhythm. As a result, the opponent caught the flaw and left winger Matthew Taylor tore through the defense and fired a powerful shot from the edge of the penalty area!

Ross Warner, the second goalkeeper who finally started the game, had no reaction and could only watch the ball fly into the net!

Home team 1:0!

Adele was struck by lightning!

He even began to doubt himself!

The game only lasted six and a half minutes, and the team that I had carefully trained for a week was defeated by the opponent?

What about being brave after knowing your shame?

After the defeat in the last round, he had already been severely criticized, and the players had also been training seriously for a week. Now no one was injured, and the main force was fully used. Shouldn't it be foolproof?

-

“damn it!”

Barry Fuller spat viciously, his face full of anger.

Matthew Taylor, who scored the goal, is a left winger.

The breakthrough just now... was initiated from the right side of my own defense!

It was originally our own attack just now. I moved forward to cover the flanks for my teammates. Unexpectedly, Porter, who was carrying the ball, was easily intercepted by his opponent and penetrated his back in the blink of an eye!

[It’s all because of Potter’s poor dribbling!]

Fuller subconsciously turned to the bench on the sidelines, and immediately saw Lee Polo holding his chin, and he suddenly became even more angry.

[The competition has just begun, don’t gloat! 】

[Just keep your eyes open and watch carefully, I haven’t shown my abilities yet!]

-

Lee Polo had changed positions several times, but he still didn't see Fuller showing off his skills.

Cheltenham, who got off to a good start, started to defend with all the players from the 7th minute. Captain Fuller, who likes to go forward to assist, suddenly lost his usefulness. He could only press with the whole team, and then create a pass through the ball.

threaten.

But...Akinfenwa is not good at bouncing and fighting for high balls. He also lacks the explosiveness and speed to move forward instantly. Although he can rely on his body to break open a little space, he will soon be surrounded by defenders.

.

No matter what the match is, how to break through dense defense is a worldwide problem. Top coaches such as Guardiola, Klopp, Wenger, Ancelotti and others may not be able to come up with effective tactics.

Even Mourinho, who is best at bus tactics, can only do nothing in front of his relegation opponents who are shrinking.

So, what good ideas can Ardley, who is just a second-division English coach, do?

He could only stare at the players on the field with furrowed brows, trying to use his eyes and spirit to help the players break through the iron wall on the opposite side.

Since the last defeat, the players had been holding back for a week, but today they could not release it to their fullest. This obviously stimulated their fighting spirit. Each of them seemed to have exploded with 120% of their energy, rushing towards the home team's position, even at the risk of "die together"

"!

Throughout the first half, the front of the home team's penalty area was full of people, and the referee's whistles were blowing one after another. Both the home team and the guest received a total of 5 yellow cards due to excessive movements. The intensity of the scene was evident.

It was the fifth yellow card that changed the situation that had been deadlocked for nearly 35 minutes.

In the 43rd minute of the game, Rieger took a free kick in the frontcourt. Dubis, who was ambushing behind the wall, received the ball and swept through the middle. Dubis successfully grabbed the point and scored before the goalkeeper attacked!

1:1!

"yes!"

Adele raised his arms and his face looked much better.

After attacking for more than half an hour, if they still can't score a goal, the team's morale may plummet in the second half. Not to mention reversing the score, it may even collapse further due to lack of physical fitness and confidence.

He glanced at the opponent's head coach.

[Now that the score is back on the same starting line, you can’t continue to defend at home, right?]

-

After 20 minutes, Adre's face turned a little dark.

Looking at the stalemate situation on the field, he couldn't help but want to curse!

[The old Yinbi on the opposite side actually continues to defend the home court!]

【Are you satisfied with a draw? 】

[This is your home court, don’t you have any dignity at all? 】

After watching for another 10 minutes, Akinfenwa, Aziz, Dubis and others were still surrounded by the opponent and had no chance at all.

Although Wimbledon had overwhelming possession of the ball, they were never able to break through the opponent's tight defense.

The midfielder and backfield could only try to open up the situation through constant long passes and blind through balls, but the effect was really unsatisfactory. Instead, the opponent almost counterattacked twice.

Adele took a deep breath and turned to his assistant:

"Inform the substitutes to warm up, we must make changes!"
